dont drive 10 over, the cops will just get you.

if you double the limit, by the time the cop pulls out, your 3/4 a mile down the road, by the time he has accelerated to the speed you were going, you can be going even faster.

Sadly, he was racing that car (at a track) and blew it up.

who would have guessed 18lbs of boost is too much for that motor?!

but moral of the story, don't half-"O Ring" it on the speeding. if you wanna go- go!

(disclaimer: you should probably check out the pics on this forum that were just posted of a bike hitting a car a 155mph, ouch)

i use the "camping" technique posted earlier. you set up camp behind someon going faster than the limit and just chill there. i have a BRIGHT blue truck and i dont think many cops would miss it whiping by. so far so good. only ticket i got was LEGITIMATLY keeping up with traffic so i paid their extortion charges and traffic schooled my way out of my insurance company finding out.

good luck whatever you decide.

Wow - one of the more irresponsible statements I've seen on this site. :stupid: Here's an idea - if you want to race, do it on the track - not in traffic. :frusty:
